Good morning Rebs and Rebettes, and HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
We got awakened this Valentine's Day by the police... Dog and M-16's in-hand!
For those who haven't heard, a prisoner in transport to Nevada almost killed one of his transporting officers in the parking lot of the Grapevine, TX Wally World... Then escaped. That Wal-Mart is almost in our back yard...
This morning, the Grapevine SWAT team and their trusty pooch tracked him TO OUR FRONT DOOR... Where the trail STOPPED!
Hmmmm..... Ever watch "COPS"? Why DO these guys ALWAYS head for the nearest trailer park? LOL! Cheesh... putting up with the government is bad enough... Now, we have to put up with violent low-lifes. Well, not REALLY much difference when you get down to the nut-cuttin'... HeHeHe...
Since the trail went cold at our front door, they cleared our "home" and outbuildings... Police crawling under the skirting, on the roof, in the trees... under the tarp on my scooter... counting our cats... NO perp.
So... This will be an "interesting" Valentine's Day for sure! I'm going to cook the missus a big steak on the grill on the front porch. If the delightful aroma draws some of the SWAT team, I'll toss on another steak for them, and for Rin-Tin-Tin.
If it draws the wanted rapist, molestor, and cop-killer wannabe, I'll even feed him. If he survies our "introduction". Then claim the $10-grand bounty. Hey, "It's all good"... LOL!
Gotta run, time to dust off the trusty old Colt...
Ride safe!
Leo in Texas [/i][/i]

a guy i use to work with was mistakenly identified as a wanted murderer by a concerned citizen. he saw the swat team outside of his house, he called the police and told them there were people outside his house with guns, he told the police he thought they were squirrel hunting in the city limits. after that, all hell broke loose, they cut holes in the roof, got in the attic and broke through the ceiling guns drawn and arrested him. he didn't know what was going on. it scared the snot out of him. after they found out he was, who he said he was they let him go and the police tried to laugh it of as some kind of big joke on him. he didn't see the humor. a lawsuit followed and a settlement was reached.

Good Luck on that Bounty Leo. Hey, pretty much kidding about the bounty...I'm not quite the "Dog the Bounty Hunter" type... (and the cops just came by with a NEW wanted poster, and they've upped the bounty to $20,000...). Told me to watch out for the guy, he's a stone-cold-killer who fights like a Ninja and runs like a rabbit. Nothing to lose, he's heading for 2 consecutive life-without-parole terms in Nevada... And he has a stolen Glock with him now... LOVELY... No grand ideas on my part to mess with this creep unless he shows up at the dinner table... Leo (watching my six) in Texas... PS: While they were here, just minutes ago, there was a noticeable "thump" on my roof. On came the lights, and the neighbor's 20-lb cat dang-near caught a burst of .223 rounds from one of the nervous SWAT guys... Guess he was thinking of that $20-grand, "Dead or Alive"... LOL! Cheesh, the price of a VESPA and a KIA! Naahh... After taxes, not much left.

Hey Terrilee,
It's NOT a plan... Just "musing". They just tell me there actually IS a serious chance he'll show up here though. If so, things happen VERY fast. My hand-to-hand combat days are decades behind me... LOL! This guy is bad news, able to, while shackled, break his own glasses and stab the guard with the wire temples, perforating his jugular. The guard came minutes from his demise, and he was a seasoned pro.
However, in a pinch, I'm most capable with a handgun. THAT is why they call them "equalizers". Like health insurance, I hope I never have to use one, but it's comforting to know I am more than a match of most young bucks. I've proved that at the range, and have a few SWEET custom tactical pistols paid for with winnings "harvested" by this old geezer, from shocked local "20-something" hot-shot cops. Not many worries anyway. SWAT is camped out surrounding my place. Oh, the JOYS of being the location of the last doggie sniff-out... LOL!
Time to broil them steaks!
Leo (cookin' with eyes in the back of my head...) in Texas
PS: As for Valentine's Day, I'm just a hopeless romantic!

Hey Terra Nuvo,
Thanks for sending him "wherever"... I'm afraid that 7th dimension was more like the shore of Grapevine Lake. A hail of lead from Federal Marshals and Grapevine SWAT did however send him to his final reward. So... He's definitely spending eternity somewhere even as we speak.
Sad end, but when you choose the actions, you also choose the consequences. It was made VERY clear that after this guy's attempt to kill the officer guarding him, from my brief encounter on the porch with SWAT and the Federal Marshals, that the law was NOT going to make any effort to take him in alive.
Something quite sobering to remember when one gets feeling too frisky...
Ride safe,
Leo in Texas (where the law still shoots first, and asks questions later, if there are survivors...)

I think here they have to do an environmental impact study before they can shoot in the area around lakes and rivers.

I think here they have to do an environmental impact study before they can shoot in the area around lakes and rivers. Ah, Doug, I think that's only in California... LOL! The prevailing attitude around here is pretty much "if it TASTES GOOD, if it CAN BE SKINNED and WORN, or... IF IT PISSES YOU OFF, feel free to try making it an endangered species..." LOL! Apparently, that includes fugitives on the run... Ride safe, stay warm! Leo PS: Once in a while the Army Corp of Engineers DOES do an environmental impact study on Grapevine Lake... Last one showed there were "too many beavers"... Hmmm... They never did anything about it aside from noting their population... Seriously though, a few years back when the missus and I were more spry, we had a little speedboat that we loved to cruise the lake in. Late at night, sitting in a quiet cove enjoying a cold one, suddenly we'd hear a huge splash right beside the boat, and sure enough, there would be a HUGE beaver that jumped in off the bank. Scared the bejeebers out of us, until we got used to them, but we loved to watch them swim. The lake is LOADED with 'em!
